IoS Jade Head (My first face up & mod/Joel from The Last of Us)

I checked shipping two days ago for the blank Jade head I'd ordered and today it arrived. :0 He's a work in progress and will remain a floating head until I finish off working on his faceup. I've got his body all picked out though. He will be a hybrid.

This character is going to be a BJD version of Joel Miller from The Last Of Us.


I modded his nose and attempted his face (which I'm still working on but I lost the sun) As he arrived so soon I wasn't prepared in time so he is borrowing Shane's wig and Lorrie's old eyes until he has stuff of his own. (I ordered it all today)
On to the pictures!

Obligatory Box! The owners certificate is really cool, it's like a little credit card.


Jade/Joel He is NS, it's a very similar resin tone to iplehouse NS.


His nose mod. The original nose is sharper, I rounded it off a bit and gave it a slight turn up. I was so nervous to start this, wasn't a scary as I thought.


Joel! I've still got work to do but he's looking ok so far.

Temp body

Thanks for looking guys!

 

Thank you so much! I've only ever painted over the top of other face ups before so this was really scary. It's not perfect me I certainly feel like he's mine.

 

Thank you so much, I really love Joel so I'm looking forward to having him around.

Thank you!

Thank you so much! He will have his own body in scale, but he does look cute as a bobble head! :P

UPDATE!
